High Court to hear battle between Qantas and Transport Workers' Union over ground crew outsourcing

The long-running battle between Qantas and the Transport Workers' Union (TWU) over the sacking of 1,700 ground staff at the height of the pandemic will move to the High Court in Canberra today.

Qantas will tell the High Court the COVID-19 pandemic wreaked devastating havoc on the airline's operation with an impact on revenue that cannot be overstated.

"From January 2020, Qantas progressively experienced an almost total reduction in travelling passengers and thus passenger flights on its international networks and a very significant reduction in travelling passengers … on its domestic networks," submissions to the High Court say.

Qantas said plans were made to outsource baggage handling and cleaning jobs at 10 airports to shore up its viability.

ACT Director of Public Prosecutions Shane Drumgold defends decision to block police report during inquiry into Bruce Lehrmann's trial

Previously confidential documents have been released by an inquiry into the prosecution of Bruce Lehrmann which detail concerns police had about his case, as the ACT's top prosecutor today defended his decision not to release them.

The Board of Inquiry, led by former Queensland Judge Walter Sofronoff, is looking into the conduct of prosecutors, police and the ACT Victims of Crime Commissioner during the prosecution of Mr Lehrmann.

Mr Lehrmann's trial was abandoned and there are no findings against him — he maintains his innocence.

The inquiry was set up after the ACT Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Shane Drumgold raised concerns he had been pressured by police not to pursue the charge against Mr Lehrmann.

ACT Greens call for two-year freeze on Canberra rents and cap on price increases for new tenants

The ACT Greens are calling for a freeze on property rents amid what they say is a housing crisis in Canberra.

Greens leader Shane Rattenbury, who is an ACT cabinet minister, has written to Labor Chief Minister Andrew Barr seeking a two-year freeze for existing tenants.

He has also proposed a two per cent limit on price rises for new tenants.

"This is a crisis, but it is important to understand that this crisis has not evolved organically.

"This is a crisis created by the policies of successive federal Liberal and Labor governments that have consistently favoured the rich over everyone else."
